No, the wheelbase is 108 for both of them. The g-body chassis does need to be cut about 6" in the front and about 6" in the back. Other then that its line it up make sure everything is even within the wheel openings and leveled and then weld.
I'm making it seems easier then it seems, but its also not rocket science. The biggest issue I have been having is getting everything to clear and fit nicely. Things we take for granted like enough room for the distributor plugs or room for an oil switch...room to reach the tranny to engine bolts.. (that was my latest issue this weekend)
